Good idea. 1472 and 1452 are based on MTU = 1500 (IPv4: 1500 - 20 bytes for IPv4 header
- 8 bytes for ICMP header; IPv6: 1500 - 40 bytes for IPv6 header - 8 bytes for ICMP header),
which looks to me as the default for netns NICs and ethernet and wifi NICs,
but we should avoid failures when different MTU used.
I propose merging this version and add MTU detection support later.

I guess we don't need to check -s values passed to tst_icmp() (I guess nobody
set MTU < 1000, although it's not forbidden for IPv4). But I'd add this check
also into ns-icmpv[46]_sender.c.

+ off course other cleanup like merging ns-icmpv[46]_sender.c into single code would be nice,
but first I want to finish route rewriting.

Do you mean to send packet big enough to have fragmentation on lhost?
+ setsockopt IP_PMTUDISC_DONT?

Kind regards,
Petr
